Book and Bed: Tokyo Book-Themed Hostel

What reader doesn't dream of sleeping in a Bookstore? Well, we readers do, anyway. A Bookstore-Themed Hostel is set to open in November in Tokyo.

According to Mental_floss: The interior of Book and Bed looks
like something out of a book lover's fantasy. Lining the shelves of the
hostel are hundreds of English and Japanese titles. Books are even hung
from the ceiling in a way that makes them appear as if they’re gliding
overhead. Guests can read on one of the hostel’s sofas piled with
pillows, or in their capsule-style sleeping quarters equipped with
personal reading lamps. Some beds are even located behind the actual
bookshelves, and guests can climb a ladder to access the second level.

While the books at this bookstore-themed hostel aren’t
for sale, guests are free to read to their hearts' content for the
duration of their stay. You can book your trip today for $32 to $50 a
night.
